Huh?

What does "guaranteed for life" mean? What does "lifetime warranty" mean? What is the lifetime of an object? Doesn't the lifetime end when the thing dies? Then that must mean it is guaranteed for the time it isn't dead. So what's the point?

I always think the guarantee should be for my lifetime. If it's for the lifetime of the item, that doesn't make sense--the item is guaranteed until it breaks, which could be tomorrow??

It's for the lifetime of your ownership. If you sell "It" it is no longer covered under the lifetime quarantee.
